Te Poi

Tikanga

The poi is practiced by both men and women. Poi encourages the wrists to become supple, increases dexterity in both arms and also improves agility. Traditionally, such skills were useful when using all Māori weaponry including the taiaha. The poi was a common pastime and is actively practiced today, especially as part of competitive kapa haka performances.

Te reo Māori vocabulary

Poi kia mau – poi get ready

Rere waho – fly away
Rere roto – fly to me
Rere runga – fly above
Rere raro – fly below
